BQ-123 (Cyclo(D-trp-D-asp-pro-D-val-leu); BQ123; BQ 123) is a potent and selective antagonist of endothelin A receptor (ETAR) with an IC50 of 7.3 nM. It has been demonstrated that endothelin-1 increases the activity of neurons and glutaminergic synaptic transmission through endothelin-A receptors (ETAR) in the nucleus tractus solitarius neurons, which are crucial in epileptic seizures. Consequently, BQ-123, an ETAR antagonist, may reduce glutaminergic synaptic transmission and neuronal excitability. BQ123 decreases myocardial infarction after focal cerebral ischemia in rats and amplifies hypothermia induced by acetaminophen. In LPS-treated rats, BQ123 Activates Nrf2 to Stimulate Skeletal Muscle Antioxidant Defense. Following surgery for congenital heart disease, BQ123 lowers pulmonary vascular resistance. BQ123 shields against endothelial and myocardial reperfusion damage.

Enzyme Assay |
BQ-123 is a potent and selective endothelin A receptor (ETAR) antagonist with IC50 of 7.3 nM.

Cell Assay |
BQ123 (10-6 M) blocked endothelin-1 (ET-1) (10-6 M)-induced [Ca2+]i increase in ETA-expressing cells by 95%. BQ-123 prevented ET-1-induced cellular contraction, [Ca2+ ]i mobilization, [3H]thymidine incorporation, MAP kinase activation, and MTT reduction in rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). However, MAP kinase activity and [Ca2+]i mobilization were not inhibited by BQ-123 in response to angiotensin II (Ang II) or arginine vasopressin (AVP).

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 5 mg/mL (8.19 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 50.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 5 mg/mL (8.19 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 50.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
